Zusammenfassung:Bimodal high density polyethylene compositions can achieve an improved balance of stress crack resistance and processibility by selecting the higher molecular weight and lower molecular weight components such that (1) the higher molecular weight component has a molecular weight distribution below 4, (2) the lower molecular weight component has a complementary density of at least 0.976 g/cm3, and (3) the overall bimodal copolymer has a relatively broad molecular weight distribution. This combination of properties can provide improved balance of stress crack resistance and processibility.
